This project on the theme of trade was created for my AP World History classes. The students complete 5 tasks to research different trade routes and organizations over time to compile their information to produce a change-over-time essay using the AP Central essay rubric. Students are required to gather information, interview or make contacts with world trade organizations, and investigate the impacts of trade routes throughout history. Routes covered include the common ones (Silk Road, Appian Way, Columbian/Triangular) but also more remote routes not always covered in the standard text. All internet links are provided for student research.
